Apocalypse After

Two-faced

In the afternoon, at Melissa's temporary residence.

When news of the Mad Ox group spread, Melissa was still inside the house. There was absolutely no time to take care of such a thing. Now, there is a guest who actually does not really like coming to visit.

Yes ... That person is Octavius.

“Is there a reason that you came to see me in the midst of your busy life, Mr Octavius?” asked Melissa politely.

“Of course I came because I was worried about you, Miss Melissa. What happened earlier was too horrible. There seems to be a massive murder. Not to mention, the culprit was only one person but was able to sweep away a middle-class group like Mad Ox.” Octavius smiled kindly. “Are you okay?”

“Thank you for worrying about me. But I'm fine. After all, this all has nothing to do with me,” Melissa replied with a friendly smile.

“But I really didn't expect such a person to just show up, especially in a chaotic time like this. Being able to kill Mad Ox who was at the peak of level 2 and his four confidants (level 2) simultaneously, should this person called V be a level 3.” hunter Octavius pinched his chin, pondering loudly.

“So begi-wait!”Melissa's eyes were wide open. He stared at Octavius with a look of disbelief on his face. “You said his name was V?”

“Eh? Yes.” Octavius tilted his head, looking puzzled. “Have you heard that name, Miss Melissa?”

“Of course ever!” yelled the woman.

Octavius surprised. She had no idea that Melissa's reaction would be so harsh when she heard the person's name. Seeing the woman's expression slowly becoming calmer, Octavius asked quietly.

“Can you tell me, Miss Melissa? It's possible that information from you could be useful in helping with the investigation.”

Melissa took a deep breath. When he heard the name of that person, he couldn't help but get angry. Moreover, fear and hatred appeared within him.

“I don't know who V's real name is and his real identity is. Only, he also appeared in Shelter 11. That person ... took advantage of the chaos to commit a very heinous act.

It seemed that person specialized in killing hunters instead of fighting monsters. His job is of course a hit man. Yet not just an ordinary assassin, he was a very vile person.

As happened to the Mad Ox you mentioned, as long as the pay is enough ... that person is even willing to kill the entire extended family.”

“Large family?” Octavius. Then, his eyes suddenly opened. “You mean, not just an ordinary family ... but killing an entire clan?”

“Yes. “ Melissa nodded with a heavy expression. “One of the big families in Shelter 11, Grasswald Family was exterminated by that person.”

At first, Melissa thought the attacker was Boris the Butcher. But he was wrong. After searching for all the information, it seemed that Boris he was fighting was a fake. The mask of that man was also broken by his uncle.

After searching with all her might, Melissa found a clue and found the real culprit. A man called V receives a mission to destroy the Grasswald Family. Not only that, the impact even made many of his subordinates die and some chose to retire.

That person was also in charge of his uncle's circumstances!

Taking a deep breath, Melissa looked at Octavius then asked, “Did that fellow really have broken through level 3?”

“Eh? Could it be that he was still level 2?” ask Octavius.

“Ya.” Melissa nodded heavily. “Before he was at the top of level 2, but was able to fight with a level 3 hunter. So ...”

‘Isn't he now on par with Uncle Jacob in his prime? Maybe more?’ thought Melissa.

Meanwhile, Octavius had his own thoughts. To him, V is no ordinary criminal. Preferably, it was similar to the treasure that had to be found by him. Digesting various information about V couldn't help but make the man think.

‘It looks like I should try to find that person as soon as possible. That way ...’

‘The position of the patriarch must have fallen into my hands!’

***

That night, at the Ervens Family store operated by Damian.

“You really put me in an unfortunate position, Faust.”

Damian leaned against the chair while looking at Alexander with a tired expression on his face.

On the other hand, Alexander sat on a chair while sipping tea with a friendly smile. It is not dangerous to humans or animals.

“Tea is good. Really, that big family is indeed envious. Is there a stable supply for this tea? Plucked not far from Shelter region 1?” alexander asked with a surprised expression.

“Do not distract. I'm talking seriously to you, Faust! I'm really in trouble because of you,” Damian said with a tired look on his face.

“No.” Alexander shook his head. “Both you or I have absolutely nothing to do with this matter. Everything is V wrong! What does this have to do with both of us?”

‘Aren't you yourself a V? Do you want to play as a B-bitch or something?’

Damian complained in his heart. But the man could only stare at Alexander who was drinking cheerfully. It was as if it had nothing to do with the two of them.

“Do you have any ideas? A plan to get rid of this problem?” damian asked with a suspicious expression.

In response. Alexander took a letter and placed it on the table. Without waiting for long, Damian immediately picked up and opened to read the contents.

‘I'm not an ungrateful person. For your sake at that time, I'll take care of your problems.’

Reading the writing, Damian felt confused. Just then, Alexander placed the cup on the table. He then looked right into the eyes of his business partner and explained.

“So like this ..”

When listening to Alexander's explanation, Damian looked astonished. He did not expect that two letters could be used in such a way. Not to mention, with just a little bit of evidence and a cooperative relationship between the two of them, Alexander could really get away with it very cleanly.

“Good! Really very good! How can you think of such an idea?” damian asked in surprise.

“That's just a few tricks.” Alexander shrugged his shoulders. “If you keep going around like a wandering spirit without direction and purpose for many years instead of living in front of a warm fireplace and eating good food, you definitely have the skills needed to survive.”

“...”

Damian nodded lightly. Although Faust in front of him was a kind and friendly looking person, he would not forget that this person was V, a vile killing who last night annihilated a group without mercy. Even cutting their necks in a cruel way, making the enemy not directly killed, instead dying from the loss of a lot of blood.

Damian looked at Alexander with an astonished expression. He can't not think.

‘Maybe, this is what is meant by two-faced ..’

‘Open the actual two.’
